“Recently married dealing with Howie and Exquisite Caterers was easy and a great experience. Of all the kosher caterers we reached out to only Exquisite did taste testings. During the tasting they treated us like a king and Queen and we were treated to various appetizers and main dishes. The food was absolutely delicious. Most importantly the food on the night of our wedding was just as delicious and plentiful. Our guests have been raving about the cocktail hour, dinner and desserts. Beyond food and taste testings I n comparing the other kosher caterers they didn't come close in matching Exquisites responsiveness and professionalism. Exquisite pricing was also the best offer compared to the other major kosher players in the Tri state area. On our wedding day everything was done perfectly. If you need a kosher caterer doing business with Exquisite is a no brainer.“
“I’ve been using Florentinos to cater my large parties for 20+ years. Whether they take care of the whole menu or provide us a few supplemental items, there food is always a delicious showstopper. We always get compliments from our guest and their staff is wonderful to work with!“

“The South Gate Manor is such a great venue! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful! As a wedding photographer it is horrible when walking into a venue and getting staff members that want nothing to do with you and disappear when the bride needs them, thankfully thats not the case with this amazing venue!Another thing that is important to me when working at a wedding venue is having great locations for my couples to ge them epic wedding photos, the south gate manor has so many great locations for photos that my couple's rave about their photos! (see attached photos I have taken).I highly recommend this great venue if you are looking for a place to really take care of you and provide your guests with an amazing time!“
“This was the best cooking class I’ve ever done- part because of the all other guests but primarily it was Maricel and her phenomenal staff! Maricel is personable, funny and an excellent cooking instructor. The food was out of this world!! The hands on experience was not to difficult and learning about the different quality ingredients she prefers was very helpful. Everyone should get a chance to experience an event at Maricel’s Kitchen!!“
“The food is consistent, more than enough to eat per tray, we order every holiday from Jacques to help soften the cooking time for our family and friends. Don't be shy to try new things! We are thrilled we've gone for many Foundation events to try new foods to order next.“
“I absolutely love J&M bakery in Middletown, NJ! Their pastries are unmatched, and I can't imagine going anywhere else for baked goods. While I have respect for other local shops, J&M's pastries, especially the lobster tails, are to die for. The filling is divine, and you won't be disappointed. They are definitely a staple for my family on Sunday. And J&M's commitment to traditional Italian recipes and high-quality ingredients shines through in every bite. If you're in the area, make sure to stop by and taste the difference for yourself. J&M bakery is a true gem!“
“Granted, I've only been here a few times so far - but Aiello's is an awesome local Italian deli.Why there aren't more great Italian delis in the area eludes me - but Aiello's is certainly worth a visit.They have meats, awesome prepared foods, delicious sandwiches and breads, pastas, imported deli meats, and plenty of specialty items.Just walking in and smelling the air inside is worth the trip alone.The foods seal the deal.The Godfather sandwich is excellent. Loaded with premium deli meats - it definitely hits the spot.My only request would be an option to choose the bread for any sandwich - maybe you can, I don't know.The standard bread was ok, but I'm a fan of a seeded semolina and would like to try it on that if possible.|Combine all the positives above with a friendly staff and there's just no excuse not to come here.“
“There are not enough words to describe how happy we were with Ultimate Caterer! We had our 200+ wedding at our farm and we knew bringing in food was going to be one of the harder things to work with. We envisioned having a never ending cocktail hour throughout the entire night and it was tough finding vendors to accommodate our vision and budget.I am so happy I found Alan! Alan offered exactly what we were looking for plus more! Throughout the entire night they had their staff walk around with trays of appetizers so our guests were able to eat whenever they wanted. Along with that, we had buffet stations for "dinner" time because there's no such thing as too much food! For dessert, they did the same thing and walked around with trays and went up to people to serve - this was amazing as majority of our guests stayed on the dance floor all night so they liked not needing to step away to grab a treat! Food was so amazing, our guests are still raving about it!Alan took great care of us the day of the wedding as well. My now husband and I were obviously so busy the day of the wedding so Alan kept coming up to us to bring us food and DRINKS!Since we had to outsource basically everything to accommodate a wedding in our backyard, we were able to get all rentals through Alan. This made the process so much easier for us because it was one less vendor we had to work with and Alan handled securing all the rentals we needed. All rentals looked exactly as pictured or even better!Alan was so kind throughout the entire process and made sure we were happy every step of the way. He was very responsive, especially with some urgent needs days before the wedding.I highly recommend Ultimate Caterer for any event!!“
